NEW YORK (Reuters) – Former tennis champion John McEnroe was duped along with investment firms, art owners and collectors and the Bank of America in a sophisticated $88 million art investment scam revealed in New York on Thursday. Art dealer Lawrence Salander, 59, was arrested at his New York home on Thursday, when he and his gallery were charged with 100 counts, including grand larceny and securities fraud, Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau told a news conference.

I remember being a 10 year old "patriot" wondering whatever happened to Swedish tennis after McEnroe defeated Borg. Then came Wilander. Then came Edberg. By today, I no longer conceive of my "tiny" Sweden as a nation that, for divine reasons, forever will dispose of magnificent tennis players. Today, Sweden sooner is the foremost breeding ground of UN careerists and suchlike people found on this planet. But despite undeniable, widespread PC idiocy, there's something I still feel is right about our little Viking nation. Ambition. If you decide to confront this challenge, I say: Go, Stefan Edberg!

Within hours of learning he could face the death penalty if he's found guilty of killing three generations of the same family on Christmas Eve, Joseph McEnroe said Friday he has new respect for life.

Dressed in a white jumpsuit reserved for "ultra-security" inmates, McEnroe wouldn't talk about what happened Christmas Eve at a...

'McEnroe' Canceled by CNBC After Four Months By Paul Gough NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - CNBC said Friday it canceled its heavily promoted talk show "McEnroe," which occasionally registered a zero rating. The show, which debuted on the business channel in July, marked tennis great John McEnroe's first foray into the talk arena.

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- CNBC said Friday that John McEnroe's dismal prime-time talk show will be canceled by the end of the year. The viewer numbers for the show, which had its debut in July, were so low at times that they failed to qualify for Nielsen's ratings reports.

Last night (Thursday, Oct. 14) on CNBC's low-rated show McEnroe, star softball pitcher Jennie Finch declared she's a conservative! The drop-dead gorgeous Olympic gold medalist was a guest on the show after Ann Coulter had talked about her new book, "How To Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)." The conservative Coulter had gotten into a heated debate with the liberal McEnroe and a previous guest, who was also liberal. After a commercial break, McEnroe implied that Coulter stormed off the set abruptly after her segments instead of staying for the remainder of the show, which is usually the custom....

When I am in England each summer people always ask: "Why don't English players win Wimbledon? They ought to be more like Americans and play to win." "To my mind, it's time Americans started being more like the English - or at least learn to lose with grace." Being more like the English?... you mean like Rusedski who, after losing to Sampras, whined that Sampras was too slow, not a very good player anymore, and would not even win his next match. What class... all third. Its ironic that John McEnroe, of all people, should suggest Americans should learn to...
